Dermaptera (earwigs) are a small order of Polyneoptera, generally with a narrow and flattened body, a pair of trademark forceps and leathery forewings, a nocturnal preference, and an omnivorous diet. Fossil earwigs are rare, but records from amber have been increasing in the last decade or so. A new genus and its type species, Tricholabidura elongata Peng and Engel, gen. et sp. nov., is erected based on a female striped earwig specimen preserved in a mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber piece. Tricholabidura has a combination of traits: body large and elongated (especially legs and antennae), relatively elongated second tarsomere, fleshy inflated arolium, longer tegmina, abundant fine setae over the tegmina and abdomen, apical sternum with medioapical margin produced as broadly rounded lobe, exposed pygidium and valvulae, that make it distinctive relative to Zigrasolabis and together are placed into the subfamily Zigrasolabidinae Engel, subfam. nov. Our research provides additional morphological features and information, whilst deepening our understanding of the lineages and diversity of late Mesozoic earwigs.

中白垩纪克钦琥珀中与 Zigrasolabis 同盟的条纹蠼螋新属 (Dermaptera: Labiduridae)

皮翅目(蠼螋)是多翅目的一个小目,通常具有狭窄而扁平的身体、一对标志性的镊子和坚韧的前翅、夜间活动和杂食性饮食。化石蜈蚣很少见,但在过去十年左右的时间里,来自琥珀的记录一直在增加。一个新属及其模式种,Tricholabidura elongata Peng and Engel,gen。等人。11 月 1 日,是根据保存在白垩纪中期克钦琥珀片中的雌性条纹蜈蚣标本竖立起来的。毛滴虫具有多种特征:身体大而细长(尤其是腿和触角),第二跗节相对拉长,肉质膨胀的 arolium,较长的 tegmina,在 tegmina 和腹部有丰富的细刚毛,顶端胸骨与中间顶端边缘产生为宽圆形裂片,暴露pygidium 和 valvulae,使其与Zigrasolabis不同,并一起归入 Zigrasolabidinae Engel 亚科,subfam。十一月 我们的研究提供了额外的形态特征和信息,同时加深了我们对晚中生代蠼螋的谱系和多样性的理解。
